Culture, Art, and Technology

The Culture, Art, and Technology program at Sixth College houses interdisciplinary writing classes (CAT 1, CAT 2, and CAT 3, as well as CAT 125 and CAT 125R) that synthesize conversations between humanities, social sciences, and STEM. In these classes, students use writing as a process to learn and think as they engage with a diverse array of topics. Whether examining the origins of civilization or the history of Hollywood and the future of the environment, students in CAT grapple with big questions about where we've come from, who we are, and where we are going.

CAT also offers first-year and senior seminars in CAT 87 and CAT 192 and opportunities to complete general education requirements while studying abroad! We foreground student engagement in all our academic offerings and believe that learning must extend beyond the classroom. We hope to foster a community that helps students engage the world around them ethically and compassionately.
